Lit Kits
During this past staff meeting, you had the opportunity to experience Breakout EDU kits in action. It was great to see the engagement, collaboration and friendly competition, but I really enjoyed hearing the laughter. I encourage you to look into these LIT KITS. These are great resources available for our students to engage in new learning experiences.
- For more information on the LIT KITS, check our handout.
- Watch the video, https://youtu.be/y5OLgskLqIM
- Join the CCSD Schoology Course “CCSD Libraries: Literacy & Innovative Technology Kits,” access Code XPQX9-XPWVH, for documents, lessons, videos, etc. about using the Cowboys kits.
Remember, each elementary teacher will be provided one-half day (1/2 day) of release from teaching for the purpose of engaging in individual, team, or grade level planning annually. According to policy, the scheduling of such time shall be determined by the staff and the principal in coordination with the District so that it will not adversely affect building or district operations. When you determine when you would like to take this 1/2 day for the purpose of planning, please email Joan the date and copy me on the email. Thank you!
